Pet care experience

Dog lover 19+ yrs experience

I’ve been caring for animals (domestic and farm) my whole life, but I enjoy dogs the most! My own pup, an 8 yr old Golden Doodle, is a friend to everyone. She is well-trained and gets along with other animals very well. I have experience giving meds, bathing, crate training, leash training and basic grooming. I occasionally cook for my pup with our dog-safe kitchen scraps and get a kick out of her excitement for her special “meal toppers”.

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience doing in-house boarding and drop-in visits for dogs and I have experience doing drop-in visits for cats. Dogs are welcome inside the home so long as they are potty trained. We have a garage space that has been set up to accommodate our golden doodle and she is happy to share the space with a friend. We do have a medium/large sized kennel on site if needed as well as a a play pen. Crate trained pups are preferred but not necessary. Our yard is not fenced and we do have chickens and other poultry on the property. We have about 1.5 acres with access to a pond. Our dog runs free but visitors will be walked on a leash (or a dog run, if acceptable) to keep everyone safe. I offer boarding in a calm, structured home environment. My setup works best for dogs who are fully house-trained, comfortable settling indoors, and able to follow a predictable home routine. I prioritize a low-stress stay for both pets and people.

Whitney and Michael were great with our dog. They took her on frequent walks and she loved it, haven't quite seen her warm to new folks so quickly without me being there. Thanks you both for all of the updates, photos and great communication during our trip.- Liam & Meghan

Whitney has kept our dog many times. Addy loves staying with her and is well taken care of. Whitney takes time to love on Addy every time she sees her. Addy is very comfortable and happy when in Whitney’s care. I highly recommend Whitney!
